Feminism is such a fancy word that people rush to the point where they think it means equal rights for women only. The society we live in always rushes to follow the crowd rather than sit down and think. Even though it’s sad that we still need feminism, it’s the sad reality that all of us need to face. Feminism is all about getting equal rights for men and women in every field that they aspire to be in.
There should be no discrimination based on gender, religion, and caste. As the years pass by, new roles are emerging and as new roles emerge everyone should have the right to explore their options and when it comes to choosing, they should be chosen based on their skills and not anything else.
Women and men both face a lot of peer pressure, financial problems, and society norms which mold them into different people than they aspired to be one day. All these are things which can be easily changed. It all starts from a young age when a teacher guides them and slowly as they grow they study subjects which interest them.
This will help them avoid peer pressure and they will slowly find solutions to their financial problems. We follow a lot of things in our way without questioning whether it’s right or wrong, just like the norms set in our society. We blindly follow things because “It has always been that way”. As we question things one by one, we break each stereotype and we are able to achieve greater heights.
In conclusion, all I would like to say is that these are just basic things which lead to the need for feminism. There are more if we keep digging into this category. So as we conclude this, all I would like for you to do is sit down and look around yourself, look at every single person and ask their story.
When you ask one by one, you will get to know that each story will have an unfair incident and you will also see how each of them is normalised and shut down by someone.
In the end of that story, you will know why we still fight for the need for feminism.
